California has numerous natural bridges, caves, etc of no little interest. The Mamoth Cave of Calaveras, dis covered by miners in 1850; the Alabaster Cave; the Crystal Palace Cave, contain ing a number of attractive subterranean appartments, such as the bridal Cham ber, the Chrystal Palace Room. Acuri ousappartmaut called Music Hall, where the deposits of aqueous origin not only take the form of organ pipes, sounding boards etc., but emit, when struck, musi cal sonuds and vibrations. Near this cave are two natural bridges which the tour ist can visit and return to the railroad within half an hour. The only natural way to reach these scenes of interest is via "The Overland Limited, Route," comprising the Union Pacific and South ern Pacific, now realy one line. The only line running through trains to San Francisco from Omaha, its fast trains, arriving sixteen hours ahead of all com petitors.

The strangest and probably the wild est honeymoon on record was begum In Los Angeles a few days ago. Two young German people are the partici pants of this unique and hazardous trip. John Drast, the bridegroom, came to America about five months ago with the avowed purpose of Journeying to the frozen North In search of fox skins. On his way across the continent he met the girl who is now his bride. He told her of his plans, and rather than wait until his return before marrying she suggested that he take her along and that the trip be made their honey moon. Drast is 21 and his wife 22 years of age. The boat that carries them, the Alert, although worn with age, is looked upon by those familiar with her gear as a good craft for almost any kind of weather. She is too small, however, to attempt a trip over so vast and rough a body of water. The Alert Is a sloop rigged craft measuring about thirty thre feet over all, wit ha twelve-foot beam. She was purchased from a Saa Pedro fisherman for $300. The couple carried with them about $250 worth of provisions, which are expected to last the voyagers until they reach their destination. Drast and his wife are going to ft point 600 miles east of the McKenxla river, which flows into the Arctlo ocean, in search of black fox. Whoa skins are very valuable. They expect to spend the winter somewhere en route and proceed farther next Bum mer. Drast said he would probably re turn in three years. San Francisco will be the only stop made between Los An geles and the Behring sex Drast seemed to understand the na ture of his voyage exactly, but his little girl wife stood by and wondered what to think of it, at the same time mani festing all confidence In her boyish husband.
